I think he is on to something here and Greg, your findings do seem to support that. I really do believe that going to 1/18 lipo packs is the way to go in the future for F1 rc racing!
A few of the guys I race with have that setup on their HPI's with the Exotek bracket.
Do you guys know if they make a similar bracket for the F104 Pro?
Or would it be just a matter of finding a way to secure it in?
